An Apple On the Table!

WhatsApp Image 2022-08-03 at 9.05.52 AM.jpeg


A person who has always been running away from his responsibilities in life, who is waiting for a miracle from God beyond his abilities. He is far away from hard work and has even lost his job due to irresponsibility and inconsistency. His wife has left him along with his children due to financial instability.

One night before going to sleep, he prays to God to perform a miracle and this empty table in the room will be full of money in the morning. But when he wakes up in the morning, there is an apple on the table instead of money. In anger, he picks it up and throws it out of the balcony of his house. When he looks back, there are two apples on the table. Soon he realizes that if he throws anything from the balcony, it will double.

He throws some money lying with him from there and it is also doubled and lying on the table. By repeatedly throwing money from there, that table is filled with money. He accumulates so much money that he can easily get by, but he is tempted to put the accumulated money in a big bag and approach the balcony to blow the bag out. So due to a hiccup, he himself falls out of the balcony and dies, while the money is left lying there in the room.

The End!

Hi @awais5

Great story, describes the initial situation of the protagonist and how his "desire to have more" drives him to a tragic ending. Of course, besides the "hiccups". 🤣😂😂

Greed has worst ending always!

Greetings friend @awais5

Interesting story where the greed of a man led him to throw his luck out the window, wanting to get double his fortune.
